The 2024 Domaine Camille Thiriet Bourgogne Rouge Les Chagniots is a distinctive single-vineyard Pinot Noir from Corgoloin in the southern Côte de Nuits. The parcel sits below Clos des Langres on deeper clay-limestone soils, with around 60-year-old vines that naturally bring greater concentration and structure. The wine shows black cherry, ripe raspberry and blackberry alongside violet, redcurrant, subtle white pepper and fine earthy notes. The 2024 vintage brings freshness and energy, while the deeper soils give the wine a more generous and serious profile.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied and beautifully textured, with lively acidity, supple tannins and layers of dark and red fruit. Black cherry and blackberry are complemented by raspberry, redcurrant, dried flowers and gentle earthy spice, while a fine mineral and chalky character adds tension and length. Around 30% whole-bunch fermentation contributes aromatic lift and a subtle savoury, spicy dimension without overpowering the fruit. The palate is round and fleshy but remains fresh and precise, leading to a dry, persistent finish with lingering dark fruit, herbs, spice and mineral notes.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent choice for Burgundy drinkers looking for a Bourgogne Rouge with more depth, concentration and vineyard character than a typical regional Pinot Noir. It is enjoyable now with a little aeration, but the combination of fruit, acidity and fine tannins should allow it to develop additional savoury and earthy complexity in bottle. Best enjoyed over the next 5–7 years. Pair with roast duck and wild mushrooms, roast quail with thyme, pork tenderloin with fennel and apple, duck and mushroom dumplings, or porcini and Comté tart.
